Mail Goggles
How many times have you come home drunker than Cooter Brown and thought it would be a great idea to fire off some e-mails, only to wake up the next morning with major regrets?
If you answered “More than I care to admit …” here’s something that might be of interest to you. Google’s Gmail Labs has a new experimental featured dubbed “Mail Goggles” which will attempt to prevent your drunk ass from sending out those retarded e-mails.
It works by stopping your message when you hit send and presenting you with a series of simple math problems that must be solved before the e-mail is sent.
Now if only AT&T could come up with a version of this for text messaging …

Great idea!
They should invent something similar for telephone calls too, which is my own personal preference when under the influence of alcohol.
